M'CLELLAN ELECTED MAYOR BUT HEARST WAS BEATEN BY ONLY 2,000 VOTES. Jerome Victorious by 12,000 Plurality— Irvine a Bed Third in Mayoral Race —Dienstrom Day for Buses Every- where—Gorman and Poe Amendment Lose in Maryland—Colby Winn in Newark—Weaver Smahen Philadelphia Ring—Virginia Lily Whites Defeated. William Randolph Hearst went crashing through the Tammany lines Tuesday, leaving McChellan a plurality of only 2,004. McChellan's election as mayor is conceded by all, except the Hearst newspapers, which claim that the editor-candidate was robbed of enough votes to elect him, and threaten a contest. But Tammany lost control of the Board of Aldermen to the Republicans, keeping, however, the Estimate Board. The vote for mayor was about as follows: McChellan . . . 228,404 Hearst . . . 234,755 Irvine . . . 187,787 William Travers Jerome, the independent candidate for District Attorney, received a plurality of 18,000. This victory is one of National importance, as it establishes the possibility of a man's winning an office without first swearing allegiance to some boss. Mr. William M. Ivina, the intrepid and gallant Republican candidate, was not supported by the normal Republican vote, into whose ranks Heart cut deeply. In other cities Tuesday was a disastrous day for the bosses, as the following dispatches show: BALTIMORE, Md., November 7—That the Poe disfranchisement amendment is beaten throughout the State is almost without doubt. Baltimore City polled a heavy vote against it, approximating 20,000 votes. With this went the Democratic candidates for city offices and a majority of the legislative candidates. Many Democrats cut their ticket as against the amendment, while the Republicans lined up opposites against the Poe proposition and for their respective candidates. While reports from the counties are late, near midnight there is every indication that the opposition to the amendment had its effect upon the vote cast for the Legislature, and there is reason to believe that when the votes are counted the Lower House of the General Assembly of Maryland will be close. Contrary to expectation, the illiterates in the outlying districts voted quite well in spite of complicated ballots. All in all, the Republicans have the State with them as far as returns show. PHILADELPHIA, November 7.—Mayor Weaver shattered the Durham-McNeilch ring today, the City Party electing all of its candidates by a majority of 25,000. The most high-handed means were employed by both parties, each of which was supported by armed bands of the toughest thaws the city's slums could furnish. NEWARK, N. J., November 7.—Everett Colby, the Republican candidate for State Senator in Essex county, wins by more than 16,000 over Julian Gregory. Frank Summer, Republican candidate for Sheriff, runs behind Colby at least 3,000. Colby has his victory almost without addition, the county Republican committee as an independent candidate for the nation. Summer was opposed by the mayor interests, and this put him far behind the head of the ticket. Los Angeles Republican ticket in Essex county and Newark was elected by a swing majority. The recount may end unless the fight against Colby was won, and accusations were made during the day that many of the regulars at the level of wards on the Republican Committee for merit or working against Birmingham, N. J., November 7.—The Los Angeles Republicans of this State did not believe their abandonment of the New American voters, for the Democrats were usual victory. HIGH SCHOOL'S HALLOWEEN.

James W. Johnson, president of the club, was in the chair. All of the local political lights and several distinguished men of prominence in Afro-American circles were out. It was an old-time, enthusiastic Republican meeting, and marked the end of a strong and vigorous campaign which has been pursued by the campaign committee of the Colored Republican club. Mr. James W. Johnson, in a brief and witty speech, opened the meeting and introduced Mr. W. H. Butler, the amorous and eloquent spellbinder of the 27th Assembly district. Mr. Butler reviewed Mr. William M. Ivins' past record in municipal affairs, and urged every Afro-American voter to stand firm by the Republican party. Hon. Charles W. Anderson was introduced to the audience in a happy vein by Chairman Johnson and received an ovation on beginning his address. His speech was a campaign masterpiece, and his witticisms in forcibly illustrating the merits of the Republican party were loudly applauded. Hon. William M. Ivina, accompanied by Senators Elseberg, Slater and a staff of newspaper reporters then entered the ball while the band played, "Hail to the Chief," and the vast audience rose enmase and gave him an enthusiastic ovation. Chairman Johnson briefly introduced Mr. Ivina, who made his chief speech of the evening to the colored voters. His pointed epigrams went home. His promise to give every one a square deal regardless of color was the occasion of an ovation lasting several minutes. Mr. Gilchrist Stewart made a brief and eloquent exposition of some of the chief issues of the campaign, and his denunciation of the use of the American flag by Tammany received aplaeuse lasting several minutes. Mr. Thomas Q. Quailes advocated the support of Jerome. H. A. C. Anderson, candidate for register, Assemblymen Agnew, Prentice, F. De Witt Wells and many of the local candidates in the so-called "colored districts" were present and made brief remarks.

Thomas, Mr. J. W. Overton and others. Quite a furry was caused when at the commencement of Mr. Irvins' speech Dr. Booker T. Washington quietly entered the hall and took a seat. He was, however, recognized by the audience and newspaper reporters and for a few minutes Irvins was lost sight of by all of the candidates upon the platform who were endeavoring to see Dr. Washington.

Golden Gate Tabernacle, No. 2, of the original Grand United Order of Galilean Fishermen, organized in Baltimore, Md., in 1856, stands to-day as one of the oldest and strongest organizations in the country, having been organized a half century and being composed of men, women and children of the Negro race. Notwithstanding the differences of opinion that have arisen in this jurisdiction and have caused a separation, the old order stands firm. We have 600 tabernacles in the United States and West Indies, with a total membership of 23,000; a bank at Hampton, Va., doing a yearly business of $31,000. The annual session held at Chester, Pa., showed a large increase over last year. Owing to the fact that our delegate, Sister Ella A. Thomas, went abroad, it was decided to defer her report until she returns, or to such time as it would meet the convenience of the members of the tabernacle. It was read before the tabernacle October 25, 1905, and was interesting in all of its details. It showed that $13,490 had been paid out for death claims in eighteen months under the endowment system. Each member that holds an endowment policy receives, in the event of death, the first year, $50; the second year, $75; the third year, $100, the face value of the policy. There are no death taxes paid by any member. The dues are 40 cents per month. The weekly sick aid $4 per week. We are sorry we cannot give to the public the most excellent report in detail as brought to us by our efficient and esteemed delegate. Deposits in our bank for 1906, $94,947.93; profits from discounts, $1,515.97; from real estate, $4,014.83; from furniture and fixtures, $1,757.75; total business year ending July, 1906, $81,190.63; total receipts of the session held in Chester, Pa. August 1 to 4, 1906, inclusive. $2,500.99. Respectfully submitted, Ella A. Thomas, Delaware. FRED R. MOORE. Board of Education maintains Her Administration of M St. High School. WASHINGTON, November 6.—The long drawn-out controversy over Mrs. Anna J. Cooper's administration of the M street high school has been settled at last and Mrs. Cooper comes out victorious. The investigation by the board of education brought to light many things favorable to her. It showed that the high standing of the school had not only been maintained, but had been advanced somewhat, that graduates of the school had been the first to enter Harvard College direct from the District of Columbia schools, that scholarship had been introduced and given under her administration, and that through this inspiration pupils were encouraged to attain a higher average and thus to seek higher education: A report of the final meeting states that her retention was ascribed to her high intellectual attainments, her excellent reputation, and because she received the support of a large proportion of the colored race in the District. No changes were made in the curriculum of the school. MU members of the board were present. The board spoke highly of Mrs. Cooper's attainments and her general character, and concluded with the following: "In view of all the facts and conclusions, and the very strong desire of a large proportion of the colored race in this District to have Mrs. Cooper retained as principal, we recommend her retention, with the express direction, however, that the standards of work, the grading of students, and the recommendation of students for graduation be conducted strictly in accordance with the policy of the board of education and the conclusions of this report, and that in her official conduct she shall recognize the authority of her superior officer, the director of high schools, and conform her official conduct if all respects to rules of the board. "In conclusion, the committee recommends that a strict observance be made of the work in the M street high school, with a view of maintaining the standards and work herein set forth, preventing any improper conduct on the part of teachers, tending to create disaffection, securing a strict observance of that discipline, official recognition of superior officers, and conduct essential to the best and highest educational results in this important school, and that stated reports of these observations be made to the board for proper action thereon." The report on the case was lengthy, and consisted of four closely written typewritten pages. The trouble at the school was dealt with in every detail. Like the report on the late Swartzell case, the document was aimed to satisfy all parties interested in the case, and it is the hope of the board that there will be harmony at the school in the future. AN AUTHORITY ON HAM. And His Deacendants Is Dr. Hayne Who Lectured on "Ethnology." At the last meeting of the Concord Baptist church literary circle Dr. J. E. Hayne of Charleston, S.

JOHN H. WILLS TO RETIRE. Washington's Bookman in III Health and Locks Financial Support. WASHINGTON, November 6.—The announcement that Mr. John H. Wills, the bookman and proprietor of "The Literary Shop," at 506 11th street, N. W., is soon to close out his business will be unwelcome news to the lovers of rare books, and especially of books pertaining to the Afro-American people. Mr. Wills has conducted this store successfully for nearly twelve years and has sold rare books to millionaires and paupers alike. His shop is a storehouse for books and magazines which could be had nowhere else. Mr. Wills had little or no patronage from his own people, although he dealt largely in books relating to them. His retirement is due to ill-health and to lack of business support. ROCHESTER TO HONOR GARRISON BROOKSTER, November 6.—The J. C.

A Halloween Home Warming COLORED DEMOCRACY RALLY. One of the largest Afro-American political meetings ever held in Greater New York was the closing rally on November 3 in Carnegie Hall of the United Colored Democracy of the borough of Manhattan and the Bronx. Upon the election of Edward B. Lee as chief the United Colored Democracy received a new impetus, he, with his characteristic force and energy, having the united support of the various colored district leaders. Lee at once began organizing meetings throughout Manhattan, the culmination of which was the monster rally in Carnegie Hall. Long before the time of opening, parade from Harlem districts headed by the First Amsterdam band and from the middle West Side districts began pouring toward Carnegie hall to the strains of Tammany. A banner offered to the Afro-American district leaders assuring out the largest number of men, brought about a spirit of intense rivalry. The banner was won by Walter E. Herbert of the 11th assembly district. At nine o'clock, to a crowded hall with the boxes full of ladies, J. Frank Wheaton in an eloquent speech outlined the merits of McClellan's administration and his services to the Afro-Americans in the official appointments he had made, and introduced Chief Edward E. Lee. In a brief and forcible speech Chief Lee thanked those present for their confidence in him shown by his overwhelming election and urged the voters to stand by Tammany hall in the election: Counselor James D. Carr furnished the principal speech of the evening, which was an exhaustive and eloquent review of the McClellan administration and what he had done and was doing for the Afro-Americans. Mr. Robert N. Wood, president of the United Colored Democracy of New York State, Mr. Charles E. Brown, ex-Chief John J. Bell and Mr. Edwin F. Horne, secretary of the executive committee, upon whom, much of the detail work of the entire campaign among the Afro-American voters involved, all made brief addresses which were enthusiastically applauded.

Wood, Walter Herbert, chairman, Edwin F. Horne, secretary. Mayor McClellan, who was to have been present, broke down from his whirlwind tour and sent his regrets with the hope that he might be able to address the Afro-American citizens at some future time. DIVIDED THEIR VOTE Afro-American Worked Hard for McClellan, Irving and Heart. The campaign just brought to a close Tuesday was the most unique ever held in New York city in its relation to the Afro-American vote. Never before in the history of an election in the Black Belt and other heavy Afro-American districts has the Afro-American been prominent in so many parties. Hearst badges were displayed and local politicians supported him because of J. Phelps Stokes' friendly attitude towards the Afro-American and Southern education. Jerome had dozens of Afro-American workers. The local Democratic leaders, and workers had strong Afro-American support for McCellan, with Democratic lodges galore, and a heavier Democratic Afro-American vote was polled in this election than in any two previous elections combined. Then, of course, there was the ever-present solid phalanx of the rock-ribbed G. O. P. hustlers and workers, who carried the Black Belt as usual, but by reduced majorities, for the Republican ticket. Miss Moore Spends Winter at Tuskegee. Mr. Fred R. Moore, the newly elected Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue; left Tuesday night for Tuskegee Institute. Ala. He joined at Washington his daughter, Miss Ida May Moore, who accompanies him South and will remain there during the winter. Open Steam Laundry in Jersey City. Mr. E. J. Brown and Mr. C. J.

KENTUCKY HONORS WALTERS BISHOP VISITS LOUISVILLE AND OLD HOME AT BARDSTOWN. Large Crowds Attend Him Wherever He Speaks—Imprising Addresses at Several Churches and Schools Dutight the People—His Home-coming at Bardstown a Great Event in That Town—He Finds the Race and the Afro-American Council Flourishing in the South. Regular Correspondence of THE AGR. LOUISVILLE, November 6.—Bishop Alexander Walters of Jersey City accompanied by his wife and young son, has been making a triumphal tour through the South. He arrived here last week and was given a very warm welcome and spoke at several of the churches to overflowing audiences. He was greatly pleased with his trip and had much to say about the prosperous condition of the race in the South, the flourishing condition of the A. M. B. Zion church and of the Afro-American Council, of which he is president. Louisville received him with a hospitality warm even for Kentucky, and Jeffersonville and New Albany, two Indiana towns which he visited, opened their hearts to him. The A. M. E. Zion church on Third avenue and Broadway was crowded on Sunday, October 29, to hear the bishop preach. His text was "Be not weary in well-doing; in due season ye shall reep." In the afternoon he delighted a large audience with an address to the Foreign Mission Society at the Jacob street tabernacle. By night the news of his presence in the city was largely circulated, with the result that an immense crowd turned out to hear him preach at the Fifteenth street church. On Monday morning he spoke on his Southern trip to the Louisville Ministers' Alliance, composed of representatives of all denominations. He discussed the President's trip South, disfranchisement, the work of the Afro-American Council and the progress of the A. M. E. Zion church. His address was cordially received and elicited a vote of thanks. On Monday night he preached at the New Albany A. M. E. Zion church on his visit to Europe and the Holy Land. His glowing word pictures of noted places and persons held his hearers spellbound. After the lecture he was tendered a dinner by Mr. R. W. Thompson, the well-known correspondent. On Tuesday morning the bishop, his family and THE AGE representative left Louisville for Bardstown, Ky. On their arrival they were given a 'coon sunner by Mrs. Amanda Muir. At night white, and black people thronged St. John's A. M. E. church to hear the bishop, who was a Bardstown box, as his wife was a Bardstown girl. He spoke with pleasure of the great improvement noticeable, since his last visit several years ago, in the churches, schools and homes of the people. His sermon was greatly praised by his hearers. Afterward a large number of people united on him to congratulate him on his success in the ministry. He has risen from a plough-boy to be the best known Afro-American prelate, a bishop of the A. M. E. Zion connection and the president of the Afro-American Council. On the next day the bishop was driven through Bardstown and the surrounding country; and at night he spoke on "The Holy Land." A welcome address was delivered by Rev. L. G. Jordan, who was answered by Rev. Reeves of Louisville. Excellent music was rendered under the direction of Miss Narcissa Muir. After the address he biggest reception ever given on college campus bishop. Friends came from miles around to do him honor. He is one prophet who has honor in his own country. On Thursday the party returned to Louisville and on Friday the bishop visited the Central high school and addressed 500 students, under the principalship of Prof. Daniel Lawson. He instructed the pupils in high ideals of living and urged that more educated young men enter the ministry. He then went to the California school, where he was warmly welcomed by Miss DeValle and told the students to believe that they can do what others have done and encouraged them to join the ministry. Other speakers were Editor William H. Stoward, Rev. White, the Georgia Baptist Man, and Mr. C. B. Lewis. The party left in the evening for Henderson, Ky., where they will spend several days, after which the bishop will return to Jersey City. WEDDED IN BOSTON. New Yorker Wins 'n Bride From the Hub.

Marshalling the Pursuit of Freedom, and the Mighty Freedom They Stirred Up —Dinahen in the Heart of the Coura- t—Hearty Lynch by a Boston Mob—Final Triumph of His Prif- pion—Trifecta of John Height and John Stewart Hill. Bostox, November 6.—Martin Luther's "Here I take my stand" was not braver than the "I will be heard" of William Lloyd Garrison. It did not seem within the range of human probability that a young man without representation, without influence, without social or political connections, without money and standing, alone would ever be able to make good those undarions and sublime words. But this the young reformer did actually do within a few months only after he had uttered them. Within a few months the whole country, North and South alike, was talking on the subject of slavery and The Liberator. Almost at once proofs came to Garrison that he was heard by the people of the North and by the people of the South. There were snarling criticisms from New England editors, animadvertising on his "violent and intemperate attacks on slaveholders"; savage growls from the South against The Liberator as a "scandalous and incendiary budget of sedition." Letters breathing violence against him reached the office of The Liberator from the South. Southern grand juries indicted the editor, steps were taken by at least one Southern Governor looking to the extradition of the reformer, while the Legislature of Georgia offered a reward of $5000 for his apprehension and conviction. Within one year from the first issue of The Liberator the whole country had heard this champion of the slave. At this grave crisis in their history in this country, it may be well for the colored people to mark carefully the means employed by Garrisonian abolitionism in its struggle with the evil of slavery more than seventy years ago. These means — patriotism to oppress on the subject of slavery; second, the printing and circulation of anti-slavery literature; and third, the anti-slavery agent or lecturer who went up and down through the free States gathering facts and preaching the gospel of freedom. Such were the simple means which became in the hands of the anti-slavery society that unquipped machines that unbounded public opinion, and through which they produced moral and political results revolutionary and prodigious. In September 1834, the reformer received the greatest individual help which ever came to him during his life, when he was united in marriage to Miss Helen Eliza Ponson, daughter of George Benson, a vegetable philanthropist of Rochester. She was inedible, a rare woman, sufficiently well known, and the wife of such a man. And he modernized, if ever a man did need it, a home such as Mrs. Garrison made for him, in which to find refuge from the storm of hate and persecution which was then bearing with increasing fury upon his devoted head. For the rapid spread of the slavery agitation alarmed and enraged the Southern alarm, also the North. And when the former demanded of the latter its suppression, forebode suppression of the agitators was thereon attempted throughout the free States. The instrument employed for this purpose was the moth. Moth broke out in one State and then in another. From Vermont to Illinois, the Northern people quotidied flicker by flicker, popular inundations of violence which overthrew for the name the freedom of assembly, the freedom of the press, and the right of free speech on the subject of slavery. The hated abolitionists possessed then no rights, either personal or property, which the rest of the Nation felt bound to respect. All was ruthlessly attacked as in the same Hall in Philadelphia, the destruction of James G. Bittner's press in Cincinnati, and the murder of Elijah P. Leavening at Alton, Ill. Mr. Garrison was attacked by this with a spirit of the times, and escaped barely with his life in the city of Boston itself. He had invited his friend George Thompson, the famous English rebellionist and orator, to assist the movement against slavery in America. And Thompson had crossed the water for that purpose, and was condemning all to the agitation with an arrogant objection. This interference of the States fired the domestic police of the city against him. He was engaged to address the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society on October 21, 1857; but his danger, was so great that he was advised to leave the city instead. Garrison agreed to take his place, and upon his head the wrath of the broadhead mob broke that day with terrific violence. He was hunted from one building to another, and was at last seized and dragged through the streets with a rope about his neck. After the terrible struggle he was rescued by the clutches of the mob and taken into the City Hall, where he was spirited by a ruse, and he was thrilling mischief by the mob, and was committed to Lovett's arrest jail, as the only place in the city which was able to afford him protection from his enemies. Throughout these years of mob violence and martyrdom the prophet did not finish, or falter, or retreat a single inch from the position which he had taken. The first of pro-slavery prosecution could not harm out of his breast the love of his followmen, albeit they were slaves, nor since the single guideline purpose of his unconquerable will. The South and a heavy price upon his head one day, but the next be farcled it with the same storm and unfortunate message of justify. Boston method him one week, but the next he congratulated her as before, the same grand and commanding man of God. From 1855 to 1869 the history of the moral resistance against slavery in America is the history of this one man and the great condemners like Woodel Phillips Theodore D. Weld, Parker Pillarsbury, Fredrick Douglas, Theodore Parker, Frederick Lyman, Stephen and Abby, Kelly Foster, the Grimke, Samuel E Newall, Ellis Gray Loving, Maria Weston Chapman, David Lydia and Lydia Maria Child, Francis Jackson, Samuel J. May, Samuel May, Edmund Quincy, Henry I. and William I. Bowdish, Lucy Stone. It was Garrison who made Abraham Lincoln possible, and it was his principles of freedom which finally triumphed in the war, and penned by hand of the great President the emancipation Proclamation. Throughout the great abolitionist supported with all his might the cause of the Union, and held part of the honor of Lincoln. And when the war closed Lincoln, recognizing the supreme party, Garrison had played in the slavery struggle, invited him to be present with his old friend George Thompson as guests of the newly restored Union at the reraising of the Nation's flag over Fort Sumter. Well does the writer recall Garrison's visit to Charleston at that time, he addressed the colored people in their parish meetings, and how they in turn poured in his feet such manifestations of love and gratitude as have rarely crowned the labors of a reformer. The world service of these labors for humanity was fully recognized on the occasion of Mr. Garrison's visit to England in 1877. At a notable breakfast given in London in his honor, and which attended by many illustrious men, John Hancock presided, after referring to our Civil War, a remarked that "probably history has no sadder, and yet, if we take a different man, I may say also, probably no brighter page. To Mr. Garrison more than any other man this is due. His is the creation of that opinion which has made Slavery hateful, and which has made freedom possible in America. His name is venerated in his country venerated where not long ago it was a place of oblivious and reproach. His name is venerated in this country and in Europe whereon Christianity softens the hearts and lessons the sorrows of men." But John Stuart Mill's remarks were the speech of the occasion. He sound lawy. found two lessons in Mr. Garrison's life. The first lesson is: Aim at all thing great; at things which are difficult (and there is no great thing which is not difficult). Do not pare-down your under- taking to what you can hope to see suc- cessful in the next few years, or in the years of your own life. The other lesson which it appears to me important to inform, among the many that may be drawn from our friend's life, is this: If you have something noble, and succeed in it, you will generally find that you have succeeded not that alone. A hund- dred other good and bad things which you never dreamed of will be once complied by the way, and the re- certainly, the sharper and more agon- citely has been the struggle which prevailed the victory. This, then, is an additional item of the debt which Ameri- cans and mankind owe to Mr. Garrison and his noble associates; and it is well calculated to deepen our sense of the tooth which his whole career most strik- ingly illustrates: that though our best- desired efforts may often seem wasted and lost, nothing coming of them that are pointed to and distinctly identified as a destiny can to humanity; though this may happen past-six times in every hundred, the hundred time the result may be so great and amazing that we had never dated to hope and should have regarded him who had and did it to us as singing beyond the bounds of mental sanity. So has it been with Mr. Garrison." Garrison's abolitionism went the whole length of the humanity of the colored race, and all that that implies in a color-prejudice ridden in country like this. The poorest or most ignorant of them, whether bound or free, were his brothers and sisters. Upon first to last he regarded them as bosses of his bone and then of his blood, as children with him from Father. He never looked down on them, in any essential resist the manhood which was his. To him they were men and women tabled to freedom, entitled besides in equality of civil and political rights in the State, equality and freedom in the church, equality and feature in every where, North and South alike. This is the doctrine which he practiced. In not a single instance was he ever found separating himself on account of race from his brother in black. He drew no color in public, he drew more in private, than far, but no farther not even socially. He went into their homes and was in all things with them; and they went into his life like manner. He forgot that he was white, forgot that they were black, forgot the pride of race, forgot the stigma of race is the tie of burned kinship and mood, which bound him insofar to them. If he possessed what they did not have; viz., the chance of a man in society, the rights of a citizen in the country, the equality of a brother in the family, did not make him feel himself better than that filled him with indignation with indignation sympathy with done them, with passionate sympathy with a burning desire to make his own rights and opportunities the full measure of theirs. As he lived and loved and labored, so he died, true to the great principles of liberty, justice and human brotherhood. Indeed, his last written word to the public was in defense of the freedom and citizenship of the colored people of the South against the violent hostility of that section toward them. With dying breath he blow a last trumpet blast for "liberty and equal rights for each, for all, and forever, wherever the lot of man is cast within our broad domains." And on May 24, 1879, the then aged prophet and friend of man was gathered to his fathers at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Henry Villard, in New York. "Men of a thousand shifts and wiles, look here! See on the shirts." See one straightforward conscience put in pawn To win a world; see the ollidian sphere. By bravery's simple gravitation drawn.

Regular Correspondence of The Ann. CHICAGO, Ill., November 6.—The National Baptist convention has come and gone. As compared to other National conventions, the Chicago meeting was not so largely attended., It is estimated that only about 3,000 delegates were enrolled, although there was not a State in the Union unrepresented. The meetings were largely attended and much was said that was worth hearing and that must result in a greater impetus toward social betterment. To the uninitiated, there seemed to be two conventions going on at the same time, but in different parts of the city. The Baptist men and women were united in spirit, though separated in their meetings. Some of the men had a good deal to say in the women's meetings, but little opportunity was given the women to say much in the men's meetings. It can be said, however, that the Chicago convention was in the malp harmonious and interesting characters in the Baptist household. They make a big exhibit of things done for the good of humanity the world over. They have the largest membership, the largest churches and the largest publishing houses of any Negro religious organization in America. The men and women who have created all this seem to be progressive and fully conscious of the responsibilities that these activities and organizations entail. Both men and women seem to have a firm and intelligent grasp on every detail of this great work. The women side of this Chicago convention was by no means the small end of the joint gathering. It was surprising to every one to see so many women of the highly intelligent and progressive type. It would be impracticable to name them all. Miss Nannie Burroughs, however, is worthy of special mention. This young Afro-American woman would be a credit to any race of women. She has character, intellect, force and graciousness of man. She is deeply in earnest and uncompromising for the right and the good. She is faithful and much honored by the Baptists, and much deserves it all. In her report to the men's meeting, she roused the assembled musculature with a high pitch of enthusiasm when she reported that women had during the past year raised $11,000 for the cause of missions. There was a great chorus of amens and thank Gods. The incompatible feature of the convention was the appearance and address of Dr. Booker T. Washington. When he reached the First regiment armory on Saturday night there were fully 5,000 people awaiting him. His appearance was the signal for an overwhelming demonstration. The vast audience rose in mourn and with handkerchiefs and other things gave him a welcome never-to-beforegone. While Dr. Washington always put himself there, there was something unusual in intensity and spontaneity of this Baptist greeting. It was as if his people were hearing the burden of indignities and anxiety by recent ugly demonstrations against him in the South and wanted to assure him of their support and protection. The address was fully up to Dr. Washington's best efforts. A more fitting address to this particular people and occasion could scarcely have been made. With great frankness and force he spoke of the different ways by which men and races pass from weakness to strength, from contempt to honor and from dependence to independence. At the conclusion of his speech the great audience surged up to the platform, almost at home, he was kept busy with a skiffing 'Mr. T. Thomas Fortune of New York and Mr. Cox accompanied Dr. Washington to the city. On Sunday afternoon Mr. Washington delivered another address to the missionary section of the convention in the First argument armory. Here the crowd was almost as large as that of the previous evening and was listened to as eagerly as if he had not spoken to them on the previous evening. He strongly commanded these Baptists for their enterprise in being able to carry on such an extensive work at home, and at the same time extend such a bountiful hand of helpfulness to the unmistakible brothers in Africa. On Monday, Dr. Washington, accompanied by Mr. Fortune, Mr. Manning of Indianapolis and Mr. S. Laing Williams visited Zion City, Dr. Washington and his party were given the freedom of the city. All places were open to them affording a study of the large factory, printing house, candy factory, the tabernacle, Zion college, Elijah Hospices and places of interest. Every attention and interest shown the visitors by the tabular fellow of Dr. Dawley. They expressed a determination to have Dr. Washington address the multitude in the tabernacle when he could arrange to do so. Among the distinguished visitors to the city during the Baptist convention week were: Mr. J. Max Barber of Atlanta, editor of The Voice of the Necro, and Mr. George Jackson of Cincinnati, Ohio. Both gentlemen were the recipients of much social attention. Mr. Barber delivered a forceful address on "The Sovereign of the Seafar" before the Fredrick Douglas Fraternity, Mr. William H. Stewart of Louisiana, K. chancellor, the executive committee of the Afro-American Council and editor of The American Baptist, was also in the city. Mrs. Daniel H. Williams of this city is visiting her many friends in the city of Washington. This is Mrs. Williams' first visit to her old home since her marriage, where a warm and hearty welcome awaits her. A department of cities has been organized concession with the Donglass center. The department is to teach and promote citizenship, for young men will have the opportunity in this department to hear some of the ablest students of the rights and duties of citizenship. During his recent visit to this city Dr. Washington visited The Houghton center and paid his respects to Mrs. Colin Parker Woolley, its founder. He expressed himself as being in hearty sympathy with the movement and believes that it is destined to do a great and uplifting work amongst us. MATHEMATICAL PRODIGY From The Austin (Tex.) Watchman, a genuine mathematical marvel recently discovered at Union, S. C., is an 18-years old Negro day inborn lore named Illu. He is rather tall, slightly built, jet black and has been to school but little. He atamuners considerably and appears half crazy, on every subject except mathematics. The rapidity, and acumen with which he solves the most difficult problems according. As an example, he was yesterday asked if a man were 28 years old on Sunday. He how many minutes had been spent on the correct mental effort are the correct results, as the figures were on the millibars. Maths-cal- cations were promptly and correctly. At Haleigh Commissioner Watson expects to take up the status of the Negro on a new line. He has just completed a line of statistics, which, he thinks, mean much. These statistics make the surprising showing that in South Carolina there is only 1,140 of a Negro laborer to the farm, including both male and female, and that North Carolina is even in a worse condition, having only 40 of a Negro laborer to the farm. The figures show also that there are very nearly 10,000 Negro farm owners in South Carolina, and nearly 18,000 in North Carolina, and that 55,100 cont. of the farms in South Carolina are operated by Negroes working on their own occup It also shows that the Negro population of school age is availing itself of the opportunity for education at a pace almost equal to that of the whites. It also shows that the generation of Negroes in North Carolina and South Carolina is more older than States; that it is that the average more than 12 years old in this State, and only 11 in North Carolina. It also shows that the decrease of illiteracy among the Negro population has been between 11 and 12 per cent. in the last decade. His figures demonstrate that the birth rate has been practically the same for all races in the last decade, but that there has been a steady decrease in the number of births in both races in the last two decades. One of the most significant facts is that in both the Carolinas the death rate of Negroes below 25 years of age is more than double that of the whites, and between the age of 35 and 44 it is nearly double. These figures will be used by Mr. Watson to show that the rising generation is educated, and is consequently leaving the farms as a laborer, becoming on the one hand a farm owner, or going into other pursuits, and on the other in moving fast as possible to the North and East. When the birth and death rate shows that the North is not keeping pace with the survivors of the white race, and that, all things considered, the figures bring a full realization of the actual conditions which are causing the oft-repeated cries for agricultural labor, and point to the fact that this State must have quickly a type of white labor that will supply the deficiency. FAITHFUL CHOIRS REWARDED. Touro Chapel Gives Them Reception for Their Good Work. NEWPORT, R. K, November 6.—To show their appreciation of the two choirs of Touro chapel the minister of that church on Friday evening gave a reception to the members of the junior and senior choirs.

This city has begun to feel the effects of the coming winter. Already a large number of the cottages have closed and put on their winter dress. Our people, too, are fast leaving us for warmer parts and on every boat we see some of our summer friends going Miss Betty Spence has closed her cottage at 12 Bath road for the season and will go to Baltimore. The baptized dinner given at Shiloh Baptist church last week was reported as being the best served this season by the ladies. This was under the direction of the Mother's club of the church. After the supper a musical program was reminiscent of the chair assisted by Mrs. Lafayette. The baskets and boxes that were given out to the mothers and friends of the club to be made into work boxes were brought in and sold. Some were beautifully trimmed. Friday morning to Mr. and Mrs. George Borden of Fillingham street was born a son.

They were clock well-groomed and very prosperous looking. While waiting for the train to leave they began to discuss the amount of spending change their respective congregations had given them. One had been given one hundred and thirty dollars, another carried a neat roll which totalled one hundred even dollars, another had thirty and not a man in the party had less than fifty dollars over and above a railroad fare. Aside from the money each wore a high-pitched tailor-made suit of clothes and carried a good overcoat on his arm. There were other good clothes in each suit case and trunk. The trip was to take about six days all. It developed, in the course of the con- versation, that one of the preachers was paid salary of one hundred and fifteen dollars per month while the others ranged onward and none received less than twelve. Each one was presented with a new set of clothes twice each year, not in unnumberable "surprise possessions" that brought flour, meal, meat and other necessaries and luxuries. The Southern Afro-American believes in his preacher and takes care of him, and nothing affords the congregation greater than to see their pastor dressed and looking well. It is a general opinion that he should be well as any other congregation's preacher and care is taken to see that Deacon and class-leaders may work rigidly suits, but the pastor will have the tailor to take his to measure. The ordinary visitor may sit down and be fed with corn-bread, liver, and "holland" greens, but it is an unwritten law that where the preacher there must be chicken, hot biscuits, bread and some kind of dessert on the table. Indeed no good housewife could think of inviting her minister with less than this on it, and with the chicken she would be embarrassed almost beyond utterance. She would run the risk of being criticised by the neighbors who sooner or later would burn of the horrid and unheard Moreover it would always haunt her a nightmare from which she escaped, so deep rooted is the situation that nothing will satiate the hunger so well as the legs and the succulent fowl. The situation is everywhere the recognized in the race. This opinion is shared by Afro-Americans but by white well. His qualification for leadership is based on the fact that it is his privilege to come into contact with number of the race and on the other fact that he is in a position to advise from the pulpit. Whenever matters that affected both races were under discussion and there was need of understanding, it has been the governor who was called in for conferencing. Whenever the questions of voting for against the sale of whisky or for municipal bonds were to be referred to the officers, the ministers have been asked to advise the people. They have generally been found on the safe and right side of such questions, be it to their credit. Some months ago, representative of a Chicago newspaper, wrote South for the purpose of writing instructions, made the statement that American preachers were genius as corrupters of the female of the race and especially, he this true in the country this Nothing could be been done It is only isolated that anything of the kind is and when a preacher is known he is very generally black. There is no doubt that the female are the greatest support of the they are of the church.

New York Ann. has returned from the South, where he went to meet Negro financiers of that section to form plane for the establishment of a central trust company, or clearing house, to do a general banking business, and to establish a chain of banks in the South controlled and managed by colored men. This meeting was to be held at. Louisville, but the prevalence of yellow fever in some of the Southern States prevented the attendance of several of those favoring the project and the meeting will be called for a later date. Mr. Fortune is the originator of the plan, and some time ago he sent out the plan, and some time ago he decrees of importance in the future to express his views in the South, and to some in the North; After a careful consideration of the site's needs, consultation with thoughtful men of the race is required to move for the incorporation of the Afro-African Co., to be capitalized at $300,000, $50 per share, to do a general banking establishment, the main purpose being to establish and maintain a chain of banks in the large cities of the South. Established banks are requested to issue upon such terms as may be hereafter instituted, upon appo, at the first meeting of the incorporation. You are requested to become one of the inventors of voting incorporator inform one share of the company. The first meeting of the incorporators will be place at Louisville, Ky., October 26, 2014. The order as to time and place by the incorporators are requested to register their vote in the matter in reply to this jetter. At this meeting of the incorporators the officers will be meeting the government of the trust adopted, and location of headquarters of the trust decided upon. The following persons have consented to act as incorporators of the company, each being a prominent man in his community: Charles Banks, Bank of Mound Bayon, Mound Bayon, Miss., J. C. Napier, One Cent, Napier, Miss., Fred. R. Moore, president Afro-American Louis Investment Co., New York; Frederick A. Investment Co., New York; William H. Steward, publisher American Impulse; ville, Ky.; W. T. Andrews, insurance and camps, Sumter, C.; Theophilus J. Minton, Minton, C.; The Terrell, cill律师, W. Shilton, H. C. "There are at present 13 banks in the South owned and operated by men of my race," said Mr. Fortune. "Of these three are at Richmond, Va., two at Jacksonville, Fla., and one each at Savannah, Gwinnett, Ala., Nashville, Teenu, Mound Ridge, Miss., Greenville, Miss, Nateche, Miss, and Little Rock, Ark. These institutions are conservatively managed and are successful, and they have been of great benefit not only to the Negro business men, but to the colored people there generally. "Mostly, I am in favor of locating this treasure, I am not yet but there are others of the incorporators who favor Louisville which is, of course, more central. "I believe such an institution as I have suggested would be a success in a financial way and make money for those immediately interested, as well as secure benefits and accommodations for Negro officers and accommodations for Negro they cannot at all times get what they want from the white men by white men. How many new banks are started in the South I cannot say; there are many details to be worked out at the forthcoming meeting at Louisville. "The men behind this plan believe that in the South exists a large hold for banking and trust company operations solely among the Negroes which is not covered except, although last year the Negro banks did a business of nearly $11,000,000." $17.40 FROM SUNDAY SCHOOL RALLY.

Buttissers, November 5—King Leopold's commission of Belgian, Italian and Swiss publicists, which for fifteen months has been inquiring into the atrocities perpetrated in the Congo Free State, spent much time on charges that natives had been maimed. Missionaries and natives testified that they had seen baskets containing a score of severed hands. The Rev. Mr. Clark saw a number of such hands which seemed to have been smoked. Some mutilated natives appeared before the investigators. The commission's report points out that mutilation of their bodies is an ancient native custom, and that all beaten and presented were attributable to natives. The commission had no testimony to show that whites had been guilty of mutilation. The report calls the methods of enforcing the taxes harsh, and condemns holding women as hostages until taxes are paid, but attributes these customs largely to the harshness of the native chiefs. The placing of sentinel overseers over native workers is condemned. Despite the State prohibition the report commends commercial emigrants out military expeditions, causing grave injuries. But on the whole the commission finds that Congo is far better off than it was. It says: "Security reigns today in a country which twenty-five years ago was plumaged in harbidity, plundered by Arab tribes and streamed with markets for human flesh. The slave trade has disappeared, cannibalism seeks fiding and human sacrifice has become rare. Villages have sprung up, railroads have been constructed to the head of the equatorial forests, steamer navigate the rivers, the post and telegraph operate, hospitals have been established and governmental administration proceeds effectively in that vast territory." King Leopold has appointed a committee to devise means of carrying out the commission's recommendations. NEW HAVEN, November 6.—The handsome new edition of St. Lukes's P. R. church on Whalley avenue, between Sperry and Garden street, was commemorated last Tuesday, October 31, at 10:30 a.m., before a congregation of over five hundred people. Long before the services began the soars were all taken and the incoming people gathered in the aisles seeking vantage points to see the impressive ceremony. At 10.30 on the east side of the church the choir emerged from the roiling room followed by a long line of clergy of this city, other cities and surrounding towns, and by the Rt. Rev. Clauncey B. Brewster, bishop of the diocese, and passed down the path to the front entrance of the church. Here the choir and clergy formed an arch through which the bishop passed to the vestibule of the church, where he rapped three times at the double doors, saying at the same time, "in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost." The doors were opened by the wardens, who, with the vestrymen preceded the bishop up the middle aisle to the chancel, the bishop reading the beautiful consecration service. Senior Warden J. W. Stewart read the donation and Rev. William Bardaley, rector of St. Thomas' church, read the acceptance. These documents were turned over to the bishop. After this service Rev. H. C. Bishon, rector of St. Phillip's church of New York city, conducted morning prayer, assisted by Rev. McDuffy of Jamaica, L. L. and D. F. W. Baker, who read sons. After this service Rev. Eugene L. Henderson, rector, presented a clam of fifteen, who were confirmed by the bishop. Then followed the communion service, with Arch Deacon Buck, epistler; Dr. E. M. Morgan, rector of Christ church, apologized by Rev. Brower water celebrant, assisted by Rev. L. Perry, rector of St. Paul's church, and Rector Henderson, Rev. H. L. Phillipse, rector of Church of the Crucifixion, Philadelphia, preached the sermon. The bishop also spoke felicitously of the beautiful church cellios and heartily congratulated the parish on its success. The chanting of spirit was excellent and was under the direction of Organist W. A. Perry, Yale 07. The altar was beautifully decorated with flowers. After the conclusion of the services luncheon was served in Christ church parish house, Dr. Morgan, rector of Christ church, welcomed the guests and the bishop was master of ceremonies. Brief addresses were made by Mr. S. T. Doughlass, the oldest vestryman; Mr. C. H. Phillips, vestryman; Prof. E. H. A. Bouchet, Rev. J. W. Davis, pastor of Zion church; Rev. Dr. A. C. Powell, pastor of Immunnel Baptist church; Rev. H. L. Phillips of Philadelphia; Rev. H. C. Bishop of New York; Rev. Mr. John of New Jersey, and Hon. A. P. B. Holly, M. D., son of Bishop Holly of Hutchinson, former pastor of the church. The late Miss Betsey Roberts to the church, of which she was a long and devoted member, was used to purchase the building lot, and a table has been placed on the walls of the church commemorating her presence. $18,000 of the money with which the church was erected is the gift of Mrs. Lucy H. Boardman (white) and another tablet has been placed on the walls commemorating her philanthropy. The $2,000 organ is the gift of Mr. E. P. Dickie (white) of Guilford, Conn. The altar is the gift of the Ladies' Aid society of the church and the altar books of the church. Mrs Josephine E. S. Porter of Hartford. She is the mother of the late John Addison Porter who secretary to President McKinley. The bishop's chair was presented by the Woman's auxiliary of the church in memory of the late Willis E. Miller, a friend of the parish. The balance of the money was raised through the medium of subscriptions and contributions among the members and friends. The total cost of the church which finished was $25,000, which was paid in full before the conservation took place. The new church is generally said to be one of the handsome structures in New England. It is on a lot measuring 48x155 feet. The exterior is of brick with terra cotta trimming, while on the interior buff brick is used instead of plaster. windows are of cathodal glass with light-colored surfaces, with the exception of the three windows, one of which contains a life-size window, one of which contains a life-size window, one of which contains a life-size window, on the west side of the church. The roof is one central front entrance which leads into a vestibule, which in turn has three entrances into the auditorium. At either end of the vestibule are stairs leading to the frontment. The nave is 68x28 feet and has a garting capacity of 2000 square feet and thirty. The chancel is 2000 square feet and is located in the height of twelfes feet for a rear and rear, with yellow binnacle and stained oak. The other woodwork in the building is of the same wood: On the right of the chained are two cloir rooms connected with folding doors, and on the left is the space for the organ and the rooster vestry room. These two rooms are covered with a slate roof, and the square tower has an altitude of 69 feet. Rector Eugene L. Henderson has spared neither time nor pain in the presentation of the work of the new church. His landable undertaking and his successful consumption of it should receive the highest commendation from every member of the parish. He had from the beginning a hearty cooperation of building committee, soliciting aid and woman's auxiliary, and last but not least, of the members and friends of the parish. St. Luke's church was founded in 1814 and the congregation worshiped in a building on Gregson street. In 1852 the church in Park street was purchased, where they worshiped until a year ago when they sold it to the Swedish M. E. Congregation. The congregation then worked in Trinity chapel on George street until the completion of the new church. PETERSBURG SCHOOL APPEALS. Trachnes Domestic Training, and Needs Enlarged Facilities. Rev. J. G. Harris, pastor of the Central Presbyterian church of Petersburg, Va., was in the city last week in the interest of the Petersburg domestic training school, of which he is president and soliciting agent. This institution is undemonstrational, and broad and far teaching in its purposes. The present building, which is rented, has already become inadequate for the accommodation of the applicants for admission. The school now has 48 pupils with two teachers, but the work is hampered by the lack of proper building, tools and materials. Mr. Harris brought with him strong endowments of his work from the city officials and prominent citizens of Petersburg. The institution was also endorsed by the Presbyterian Council which met at Englewood, N. J., a few weeks ago.

From the Indiana Record. The suggestion made by Dr. Booker T. Washington, and very generally taken up by the press of the race and of the country, that the centenary of the great abolitionist should be generally celebrated on the 10th of December next, is one that the people at large should adopt and carry to a happy conclusion. While, in a large sense the labors of William Lloyd Garrison wrought for the well being of be devised that those who benefited most the people of the whole Republic, including the slave holders, it will not by those labors were the African slaves and their descendants, in the United States; it is highly appropriate, therefore, and, whatever others may or may not do it will be peculiarly gracious for people to make an anniversary a Nation-wide event only for this year, but for all succeeding years, as William Lloyd Garrison, more than any other American, typified in his life and labors and achievements the "genius of universal emancipation." In order to carry out more fully on the 10th of December and on all succeeding Decembers the perpetuation of the name and good works of William Lloyd Garrison, it would be wise and appropriate to be open and alluded to the William Lloyd Garrison clubs, with this rinsing declaration of Mr. Garrison's as the rallying cry: "I am in earnest—I will not equivocate—I will not retreat a single inch—and I will be heard."
